I don't think a pro golfer can really teach you how to putt. I have known a few excellent tee-to-green golfers who were lousy putters. You can usually tell a bad putter by how often they try to improve by buying an expensive new putter. I think that putting is different from other shots because you cannot be accurate if you put side spin on the ball. You must develop a stroke that brings the putter straight back and straight forward along the line to the hole. Also, most putts that don't make it to the hole do not go in, and most missed putts miss on the low side of the hole. My two cents.
